Tracey Dooley

You’ve met me before – that unashamedly happy, fun loving individual that spreads cheer everywhere I go. I can’t help myself, I’m just very enthusiastic about everything I do.

As a child I played the clown; Yes, for real! While my mum played the Fire Eater I played the Acrobat and we regularly performed in streets, schools and community centres around Glasgow.

I also loved to dance. At family gatherings in Glasgow, where I grew up, my brother and I turned that passion for dance into a Rock’n’Rolling party piece. Everybody loved it. It was like I was born for it. I love having fun and more than that, bringing fun to others.

When I eventually moved to Galway, Ireland, I was lucky enough to discover swing dancing. It felt like the perfect fit for me. I threw myself into it with gusto – joining performance groups, dancing for charity events, special occasions and eventually moving into teaching.Something that brought me so much joy, I now get to pass on to others.

It was through all of this that I was introduced to Swing Train, a perfect combination of dance and fitness that will get your heart racing and bring a smile to your face. Swing Train fits my personality like a glove.

The question isn’t why I’m with Swing Train. The question is why on Earth wouldn’t I be?
